Running

1.Release the parking brake by moving the lever downward.

Your mower is equipped with an operator presence system. When the engine is running, any attempt by the operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking brake will shut off the engine.

2.Move the steering controls to the neutral position (N).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The mower deck’s anti-scalp rollers should be evenly adjusted.

3.Select the cutting height using the cutting height pedal.

WARNING!

Ensure that no one is near mower when engaging blade switch. Make sure the work area is free from objects that could be thrown by the rotating blades.

Select cutting height

4.Engage the mower deck by pulling out the blade switch.

5.Move throttle control to full throttle (not choke)

The machine’s speed and direction are continuously

 

variable using the two steering controls. When both

 

controls are in the neutral position, the machine stands

 

still.

 

By moving both controls an equal amount forward

 

or backward, the machine moves in a straight line

 

forward or backward respectively.

 

In order, for example, to turn right while moving

 

forward, move the right control towards the neutral

 

position. The rotation of the right wheel is reduced and

 

the machine turns to the right.

 

Turning on the spot can be achieved by moving one

control backward (behind the neutral position) and

Engage mower deck

carefully moving the other steering control forward

 

from its neutral position.
